Carpools
WHY CARPOOL?
Carpools are a convenient and sustainable way for students, faculty, and staff to commute to and from campus.

Biking at UD
A number of students and employees take advantage of community bikeways to ride to class or work. Many of Newark’s main arteries have either bike lanes or are marked so motorists know to share the road. The University provides bike racks at many buildings and University shuttle buses are equipped with convenient bike racks.

Walkability on Campus
Walking offers a healthy and environmentally friendly way to get around campus, and the University has attractive and well-lit brick pathways radiating from the Green at central campus to residences to the north, east and west. For walkers on central campus, there is a pedestrian overpass to ease crossing of South College Avenue. For those moving south from the Laird Campus, there is a pedestrian bridge.
Zipcar car sharing
Save time, money and the environment. The University of Delaware has partnered with Zipcar to bring self-service, on-demand car sharing to the area.
